Several stains of the intracellular parasitic bacterium Wolbachia limit severely the competence of the mosquitoes Aedes aegypti as a vector of dengue fever and possibly other arboviroses. For this reason, the release of mosquitoes infected by this bacterium in natural populations is presently considered a promising tool in the control of these diseases. Following works by Barton and Turelli and subsequently Strugarek et al., we consider a simple scalar reaction-diffusion model describing the…

### Hindrances to bistable front propagation: application to Wolbachia invasion

• Environmental Science
Journal of mathematical biology
• 2018
It is rigorously show that a heterogeneous environment inducing a strong enough population gradient can stop an invading front, which will converge in this case to a stable front, and characterize the critical population jump and prove the existence of unstable fronts above the stable (blocking) fronts.

A framework based on existing reaction-diffusion models for the uncertainty quantification in this context is built, both theoretical and numerical lower bounds for the probability of release success are obtained, and new quantitative results on the one dimensional case are given.

### Ensuring successful introduction of Wolbachia in natural populations of Aedes aegypti by means of feedback control

• Medicine
Journal of mathematical biology

This study proposes and analyzes a model describing the fundamental aspects of the competition between mosquitoes carrying Wolbachia and mosquitoes free of the parasite, and devise an introduction protocol that is proved to guarantee that the population converges to a stable equilibrium where the totality of mosquitoes carry Wol Bachia.

### Modelling a Wolbachia Invasion Using a Slow–Fast Dispersal Reaction–Diffusion Approach

Wavepeeds indicate that as the temperature decreases within the optimal temperature range for mosquito survival, the speed of a Wolbachia invasion increases for Aedes aegypti populations and decreases for Drosophila simulans populations.

After >2 years under field conditions, the Wolbachia infection continued to show complete cytoplasmic incompatibility across multiple gonotrophic cycles but persistent deleterious fitness effects, suggesting that host effects were stable over time.

### Modelling the Use of Wolbachia to Control Dengue Fever Transmission

• Medicine
Bulletin of mathematical biology
• 2013
It is shown that Wolbachia has excellent potential for dengue control in areas where R0 is not too large, and unless control measures to reduce R0 by reducing mosquito populations are also put in place, it may be worth the extra effort in such cases to introduce Wolbachian strains that eliminate denge transmission completely.

### Strategies for Introducing Wolbachia to Reduce Transmission of Mosquito-Borne Diseases

• Biology

• 2011
It is demonstrated that male-biased release of Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes can cause substantial transmission reductions without transiently increasing disease risk and that female-biased releases can be an effective and safe way of rapidly establishing the symbiont in mosquito populations.
